Although I think the Premiership is vastly over-rated, it never ceases to amaze me how some players can get a game every week for some teams in this League.
For example
Chimbonda. One of the worst players I have ever seen, he always seems to be giving the ball away or fouling people. How anyone would be comfortable with him at right back is beyond me.
McShane. What the f**k is this guy all about? He plays like he is dancing on the spot and is always all over the place, headless chicken. A total liability yet seems to play every week.
Ameobi. What the f**k? Has this guy ever had a good game?
And so on.
Titus Bramble is another, he seems to make a big mistake every other week and still a first pick.

I can believe what they paid for him. He was terrific with PSV. Shame that it's not turned out well with Spurs.
I always go with Bendtner in a thread like this.

Emanuel Eboue.
But the obvious one is Gomes. I just can't believe he is a 'keeper. Just can't believe it. And for £8.8m. Bloody hell. Think Chelsea had him lined up as their second to Cech.
I would rather have Gomes from the Addams Family in goals.

Pretty sure he's on loan at Cardiff. Signed for Villa in January and still hasn't reached double figures in appearances.
Kevin Kilbane is a great shout though and to think he's got 80/90 caps for Ireland as well

At one point tabloids would have you believe all of the 'big 4' were interested in him to the tune of £40 million, for what it's worth I think he is ok as a target man but very overrated, can't remember anything of him for Southampton other than going in goal once.

To be fair he's been brutal all season it was just more apparent yesterday because Lennon had more pace than anyone else he's come up against so far.
Speaking of whom, If Aaron Lennon didn't have pace he'd be nowhere near the English Premier League.

I believe it was even more than that. But the good news is that people are beginning to see the light.
Speaking of which, I believe Newcastle spent 17 million on Damien Duff, who has scored a whopping two (count 'em) goals apparently.
QUOTE (Jim Pansy @ Nov 24 2008, 16:30)

Yes, I think it is now being realised he is total pish.
It is a sad indictment of football today when his signing for 12 million was it(?) raised relatively few eyebrows.
I don't think Newcastle paid that much for Duff, Chelsea maybe but not Newcastle?
He's been shite anyway, agreed. But then they know a lot about how to spend ludicrous sums on no hopers.
Also I don't agree with the criticism that John Obi Mikel gets. He doesn't pretend to be anything other than a player who sits in front of the defence and sprays passes around all day, doing very little else. He can't be THAT bad if he plays every week for Chelsea, can he?
I'm not saying he's the new Makelele, he can't really tackle, but I don't think they look to him to do that.
